Geocache Description:

A traditional cache situated on leafy lanes through the Newsells Estate.


Newsells Park is a large stud farm owned by Jacobs Holdings AG. The Park has a long history of connection to race horses. The original house, built in the late 17th century,[1] was the family home of Hugh Rose, 1st Baron Strathnairn in the early 1880s.[2] Strathnairn was keen on horses and had an obelisk erected in memory of his favourite charger which he had ridden during the Indian Mutiny. This house burnt down during WWII (but the obelisk remains!) and was rebuilt by Sir Humphrey de Trafford, also a prominent racehorse owner. There are a number of very atractive footpaths through the Park with frequent views across well tended fields of horses surrounded by clipped hedges.
